So I took off version 1 & started from scratch with a black base (using Maybelline Express Finish Onyx Rush) and I'm much happier with the results. This took 2 coats of the black, and then 3 coats of the Sinful Green Ocean, and the end result was pretty chunky, so I put 2 thick coats of Seche on to try & smooth it out and it's still not exactly level. But it certainly is BLING! =) Also, although there are hints of blue in the bottle, with the black background you get a lot more blue.
You can always tell how much I like a color when I put up an absurd amount of pictures, and there are quite a few here. The sun even showed for a moment while I was out so I got a pic. Enjoy:
I'm really happy with this, SO glad I didn't settle for my original attempt. Thanks for reading.

ohhh, I like this alot!! Very cool! I will have to try mine over a dark blue nail polish I just got, I bet it would look really cool.
ReplyDeleteBTW - While I was out of town I finished a book I was currently reading and then another book! It was just like the old times when i used to finish a book in a couple of days! :)
Wow - that is just gorgeous!! Great job...I bet it's super-sparkly...
ReplyDeleteThis looks like Nfu-Oh flakies! I might have to purchase!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post, very pretty!
That does look amazing. So much depth. Love it!
ReplyDeleteBROOKE - I think it would look awesome over dark blue, the blue would probably pop even more!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you found time to fit in some reading!
JAMIE - Yes, it's super-bling in person. I have one pic I'm still tempted to put up it's with the lights off & just the TV on in the background, you can still see the bling of this polish in the near-dark!
NESSA - It reminds me of those too (though I've never seen one in person ... yet). Cheaper than Nfu-Oh though I'm pretty sure =)
PIXIE - Thanks! It kind of reminds me of a black opal.
